This headrest has visible chips on the top and the base, and a small crack at the middle of the top; otherwise in fairly good condition.
In many African cultures, small wooden "pillows" are used to support the head during sleep and in some instances to preserve a hairstyle. In Ethiopia, the headrests come in several forms and relate to other intricate, but abstract works.
